Outernational! – Fast Eddie lyrics

Fast Eddie thought he was free
Cutting and conniving, confiding in me, he said
"I've got a fast car that shimmers and shines
My name is know up and down the line!"
He wants that kick-back whiplash living it up
Like those big bad kids that like it rough

I want that badge back Mama
Been living in a dark place, oh yeah

I've got no place to go
I want to ride tonight
As a witness to that war outside
Your hands in mine like the hands of time

Hey man I want to figure it out
I want the goddamn answers and I need them now
"I don't want to put up a fight
I don't want to take your hand tonight!"

I want that badge back Mama
Been living in a dark place
I want that badge back Mama
Been living in a dark place, oh yeah

I've got no place to go
I want to ride tonight
As a witness to that war outside
Your hands in mine like the hands of time

Nostalgia prunes, eats away at his skin
It's like high-noon with no way to win
I'll pull that old rifle right out of the ground
With my new shades on I'm gonna take this town

I want that badge back Mama
Been living in a dark place, oh yeah
I want that badge back Mama
Been living in a dark place, oh yeah

I've got no place to go
I want to ride tonight
As a witness to that war outside
Your hands in mine like the hands of time
